OK, another one from EAS.

MP, unfortunately the Wambundu is on my puter, which I can't use while back is like this, and transfering from it to my wifes screws it up...as soon as I get back where I was recovery wise I'll make it top priority.

Anyway, some pics...

Interesting. It looks like a cross between a Constitution and an Ambassador. I would really like to see how this one turns out.

This is actually listed as a TOS design, but it is replaced by the time the Connie is around, so I see it as pre-TOS, around the time of the Asia.

Yeah, I can see the TOS elements. I was just commenting on the hull geometry. The secondary hull and the warp pylons remind me of the Ambassador class.

No problemo Sandman, you keep pumping out stuff like this and I'll wait till whenever to see the Wambunda done. On a side note, is the GUN ship on the other puter as well ? IIRC you were almost finished with that one as well. This ship looks very exciting, I'll be keeping an eye on this thread.

Hehe, you still want that monstrocity eh? Actually, it's on this one. Remember I used you nacelles, so textures might not match, but it'll be mapped...after I finish this one.

OK, started the texturing...schematic shows phasers on the rim rather than the saucer top; should I do it that way, or on top? I ask cause it seems on the rim the fiekd of fire would be limited.

Anyway, here's a couple pics so far...

I think there's to much Aztec in that saucer texture for a pre-TOS ship. But I really like the Bridge section

.

I agree.

I know, but too plain without.

If it's an issue, I'll change it.

Agreed but sometimes simplicity is elegance. The TOS Enterprise, a timeless, classic beauty.But a total plain Jane next to TNG era ships. But hey man it's your vision, do whatever ya think is bestest LOL. Ya know we're gonna dig it.

It's cool...I have a "plain jane" texture I can try.

Centurus · « **Reply #14 on:** June 12, 2005, 09:03:11 pm »

Why not a cross between ENT and TOS. This is supposed to be a Pre-TOS ship, so maybe such a blend would work. Similiar to that retextured Connie that someone did, with an ENT-type look to it.

Almost done...

Hey Sandman !! Looks great bud !

Mr_Tricorder · « **Reply #18 on:** June 13, 2005, 11:47:51 am »

Looks good. I think the shuttle bay needs some work, though.

Looks great dude

Sandman3D · « **Reply #20 on:** June 13, 2005, 12:40:58 pm »

Thanx!!

Yeah, the sbay needs to be flipped (textures), and some tweaks, but I said I was almost done.
